Title IX sports; reader comments: global warming, newspapers

For Tuesday’s paper, we will take a look at the new push for broader equality in girl’s sports. On Saturday, the P-I’s David Andriesen gave a nice overview in the Sports section about the efforts of the Women’s Sports Foundation and the ACLU to make gains in Washington state, Los Angeles and Philadelphia.

Especially for a holiday weekend, there was a surprising amount of discussion on a couple of Opinion pieces from Sunday, the editorial urging further state action on global warming and David Horsey’s column and cartoon about the decline of print journalism. Soundoff comments on global warming are here; comments on the state of journalism here.
